It has a random nature, but will be holding the item Life Orb which will boost your attacks at the cost of a little HP each time.

Several of days ago we reported on the announcement of the Deoxys distribution. May the 8th which is tomorrow would have been the day we could get our hands on it, but for some odd reason Game Freak/Nintendo has been so generous and decided to start the distribution today!

With Deoxys now available, we have full details regarding its distribution. This Deoxys is at lv100 and has the moves Nasty Plot, Dark Pulse, Recover and Psycho Boost with Nasty plot and Dark pulse being special moves that Deoxys cannot normally learn. It is also holding a life orb and comes in a Dusk ball.

Update: A slight change to the Deoxys distribution. It seems Deoxys is now only obtainable in Pokémon Black 2 and white 2.

Today Nintendo has announced a new Wifi Event for the latest international Pokémon games.
